Handweaving and weavers in Marlborough, (at the top of the South Island), New Zealand

Connecting Threads - an Exhibition

A retrospective exhibition of handweaving from Peg Moorhouse and Rose Pelvin is now showing at the Gillan Art Salon, Grove Road, Blenheim [opposite the Railway Station], 10 am to 4 pm daily until 24th October.

A great opportunity to see the contrasting styles of two of our most experienced weavers: Rose's signature elegant table linens, and Peg's colourful wall hangings. As Steve Austin [CEO of the Marlborough Museum] said "These works represent a celebration of the survival of tradition".
